Donna,
I have had Graves for about three years. I am interested in hearing about your radiation therapy. My Thyroid has balanced – I am no longer on any medication, but I still have swelling and protrusion of the eye. My doc told me that he thinks the swelling may actually be scar tissue on the eye muscles due to the time that has passed. He is now recommending the orbital decompression surgery rather than radiation. he feels the radiation will not affect the eye muscles because they are already scarred. I still wonder if I should give radiation a try. Any thoughts. Do you see an eye surgeon? Who recommended the eye radiation for you, and how much time had passed from when you were first diagnosed with Graves? Thanks in advance for your help.
Debbie
